The Fobo photo experience brings all the fun of an old school traditional "photo booth" to the iPad! Shoot still images or animated GIF videos! Fobo is easy to use and offers flattering filters with selfie sharing. It's an instant hit at your next party. A live stream slideshow of your images, or photos imported from your library, can play on any TV connected to an Apple TV using AirPlay. It also has a super fun GIF building feature to create custom animations. Fobo All-Access Pass – With a subscription to "Fobo All-Access" you get control over several of our "professional" features in Fobo, like re-branding the app interface and all images with your personal/company logo or changing Fobo's colors to match your brand. Also, images can be modified with your own graphics and you will receive all future pro features as they are released. Fobo All-Access is available in 2 forms: One-time purchase of 48 hours or an auto-renewing subscription based on a per month charge. Payment will be charged to your iTunes account at confirmation of payment. 48 hours starts at the moment of purchase.

When using auto-renew, your account will be charged for renewal within 24-hours prior to the end of the current period. Prices vary by currency and local exchange rates. Subscriptions may be managed by the user and auto-renewal may be turned off by going to the user's Account Settings after purchase.

Turn your phone into a real portable photo booth! Why rent expensive and bulky devices when you already have everything you need to set up your own photo booth? Thanks to Selfun, you just need to connect your phone to an external screen to allow your guests to immortalize themselves during your events. The app uses your phone's front camera. Take a flattering (or non-flattering…) pose, start the capture, and let Selfun do the rest: • Pictures taking in countdown or manual mode, • Automatic collages creation (up to 9 photos), • Total customization (texts, images, colors, etc.), • Themes available through in-app purchases.
